    Your really can't. Unless you go by the first two words of every file be the first name and last name. Which may not be the case in word doc as there can be columns, headers, etc.

    You should have thought out all the design and specification before starting a project.

      Hi,

      I would suggest adding some mandatory fields to the form to capture the information you want to parse out of the resume.

      Parsing files is a tricky business even when you have a set format. If you are trying to parse files of a user submitted format then you have an unlimited number of possibilities to cater for.
